Struck at Pella — the Macedonian royal capital — in the decade following Alexander's death in 323 BC, this issue belongs to the contested period when Antipater's son Cassander was consolidating control over Macedonia proper. The continued use of Alexander's name and types by Cassander was purely political: his legitimacy rested entirely on proximity to the dead king's authority, not any dynastic claim of his own. Minting under Alexander's name was the only viable fiction available.
Price 249 is a well-documented emission within the Pella sequence. The dies fall within a period when Pella's output was substantial, supplying military pay for ongoing conflicts among the Successors.
